Gee three months the poor lass will go mad but she's still with us so that's the main things and everything else can be worked on, so we might have to get her a noodle bag to break the boredom. I should send some of my, what she kindly called hockey pucks the cheeky thing, and they're my pride and joy :laugh2: picking the rubbish off the coins should keep her amused for ages. But ya gotta feel sorry for the poor staff as she'll be giving them what for.

Come on Bruce as big as her, that's HUGE :laugh2: tell her I said that and your in big trouble mate :winkextra: just as long as it helps to the road to recovery and it's times like these we need support from our family and friends even if they are a thousand miles away and it's the little things that make us happy and I know from experience so you's can bag me out if you must but I don't care as I just wanted to do something special for someone that I call a friend and needs a little support in her time of need so now I have to work out something nice for me old mate Kel, anyone got any thoughts??? I know he said he didn't have a dancing man with sunnies so I have one of them but I can't send just one coins so anyone remember any other coins or even just something they think he'd like :hi:

Yeah I carry on but when a friend needs me I try and be there, just hard being so far away so we do what we can :friends:

I visited Kim this day in the company of my wife and Kim really did look good.   Siting up in bed, legs crossed and giving good conversation to her mum and dad.   Looks like she will be flitting between the Rehab Centre and The Alfred Hospital for a while for xrays/tests/etc.  

Kim can't wait for permission to move about as she is on the move by herself.   Walking about etc but will not take a shower without assistance according to her mum.

Good luck to her.   The bruising is still there but it is gradually fading.

Her new friend, the bear, is close by and keeping her company.

I gave her all the latest notes of get wells that was on the forum pages.   A good smile was seen.

She was given the package from Markn and PPH and she loved it.   Big broad smiles.   A nice gift.

That's it from me at this stage.

I got a call tonight from Jenny with thanks from Kim and the family for the card and gift we sent that Goldy took in to her today. I made the card with threepence error photos and we handpicked some threepences from our collections for her. Kim insists the loupe return with her parents tomorrow! She is doing well and whilst i tried not to pry with too many questions i think our AC is very black and blue right now with a big fighting spirit. Jenny doesn't really have time to browse the forum travelling 6hour return trip everyday to keep Kim in line, so i thought i'd add my little update. Kim is supposed to be resting but i'm told its hard to keep her in bed!

That was very nice pp, she'd love it :hi: don't know why Mark was saying all those things about you yesterday :mocking:  NO NO he didn't, gee only joking and I really don't want to start a domestic :friends:

:laugh2: yeah I wouldn't want to be any of the nursing staff as she'd be keeping them on their toes :winkextra:

Just handed Kim a couple of kilos of 3d to noodle. THAT should keep her out of mischief, and I'm sure the nurses will be sooo thankful. :)

Piccies coming, when I get home. The hospital WiFi doesn't want to let my iPod and MacBook talk to each other, and I don't have a cable.

Kim is reading this thread now on my iPad, and will be posting shortly.

Hey, that was quick Fulvio.   Glad you were able to give AC something to play with.

If AC can do those coins, we all know that she is getting better.

Lovely -almost (just almost) brings tears to my eyes. OK then, I did have to get my hankie out.
Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

Hehe.. she's on the phone with AJ now, while I look at these ANDA die cracks she found.... and she's got a little pile of rainbow's already. Refuses to take any of them as a gift though. :(
